A Deeply touching movie with many messages

Rating: 10/10 (3 July 2005)

Rarely is there a movie without violence, chase scenes, war, and complicated plot twists so enthralling. It captured my attention and held me throughout totally entertaining me with great visuals, music score, and excellent character interaction. I recommend it to anyone looking for an entertaining departure from the usual fare. The music is wonderful, and it provides a glimpse into a life that is long gone... the twenties and thirties with jazz and cruise ships as the standards of life in that era. Tim Roth is excellent, as a cad and an artist, one with insights far beyond most, and a fear of the unknown, in this case, what lies on shore.
